Forward Andrew Wiggins, the No. 1 player in the 2013 recruiting class, and Kentucky recruit Karl Towns of the Dominican Republic are among the players chosen to represent the World team in the annual Nike Hoop Summit game April 20 in Portland, Ore.

This is the 16th Hoop Summit game. Past international teams have include Serge Ibaka, Dirk Nowitzki, Tony Parker and Nicolas Batum.

Wiggins, a Canadian attending Huntington Prep in West Virginia, played last season as a junior and dominated the game for the World Select Team, scoring 20 points in an 84-75 victory over the United States squad that included UCLA-bound Shabazz Muhammad and Kyle Anderson, among others.

Wiggins has yet to choose a college but is considering Florida State, North Carolina, Kansas and Kentucky.

A junior at St. Joseph’s High in Metuchen, N.J., Towns was a member of the Dominican Republic national squad that missed qualifying for the 2012 Olympic Games by one win. He committed to attend Kentucky last fall and will join the Wildcats in the fall of 2014.

Small forward Sergey Karasev played for Russia at the 2012 Olympics and earned a bronze medal, appearing in two games during the tournament though he had yet to turn 19.

The World squad also will feature shooting guard Dante Exum of Australia, who averaged 17 points at the FIBA U-17 World Championships last July, including 17 in a pool-game loss to the United States and 21 against the Americans in the Aussies’ gold-medal game defeat.

Exum, a class of 2014 prospect, is being recruited by several major Division I schools. He has made a visit to Indiana, has Kentucky, Louisville and Ohio State on his list and also has scholarship offers from LSU, SMU and Tulsa, according to Scout.com.
